Combs was originally indicted on major federal charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. Following his trial, a federal jury acquitted him of the severe racketeering and sex-trafficking charges. However, he was convicted of two counts of transporting ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and an anonymous victim across state lines for prostitution. U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian handed down the 50-month sentence on October 3, 2025, in Manhattan federal court, alongside a $500,000 fine and five years of supervised release.

Prosecutors had pushed for an 11-year sentence, pointing to a history of domestic violence and abuse, while defence attorneys sought a lighter 14-month term or time served. Judge Subramanian stated that a substantial prison term was necessary to hold him accountable and act as a deterrent for domestic abuse, though he stopped short of the harsher sentence requested by prosecutors.
